Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-1

2 Outline Notes Analogy of telephone network
Chapter 1 Outline Analogy of telephone network Data and telecommunication network Distributed computing environment Internet Protocols and standards IT management Network and system management Current status and future of network management Notes Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-2

3 Telephone Network Notes Characteristics:
Chapter 1 Telephone Network Characteristics: Reliable - does what is expected of it Dependable - always there when you need it (remember 911?) Good quality (connection) - hearing each other well Reasons: Good planning, design, and implementation Good operation and management of network Notes Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-3

4 Telephone Network Model
Chapter 1 Telephone Network Model Notes Notice the hierarchy of switches Primary and secondary routes programmed into switches Automatic routing (Failure  Alternative route) Where is the most likely failure?  Proactive monitoring Use of Operations Support Systems to ensure QoS Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-4

5 Operations Systems / NOC
Chapter 1 Operations Systems / NOC Monitor telephone network parameters S/N ratio, transmission loss, call blockage, etc. Real-time management of network Trunk (logical entity between switches) maintenance system measures loss and S/N. Trunks not meeting QoS are removed before customer notices poor quality Traffic measurement systems measure call blockage. Additional switch planned to keep the call blockage below acceptable level Operations systems are distributed at central offices Network management done centrally from Network Operations Center (NOC) Notes Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-5

6 Data and Telecommunication Network
Chapter 1 Data and Telecommunication Network Notes Computer data is carried over long distance by telephone (telecommunication network) Output of telephone is analog and output of computers is digital Modem is used to “modulate” and “demodulate” computer data to analog format and back Clear distinction between the two networks is getting fuzzier with modern multimedia networks Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-6

7 IBM SNA Architecture Notes
Chapter 1 IBM SNA Architecture Notes IBM System Network Architecture (SNA) is a major step in network architecture SNA is based on multitude of (dumb) terminals accessing a mainframe host at a remote location Less expensive than using telecom networks Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-7

8 DCE with LAN Notes Driving technologies for DCE: Desktop processor LAN
Chapter 1 DCE with LAN DCE.. Distributed Computing Environment Notes Driving technologies for DCE: Desktop processor LAN LAN - WAN network Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-8

9 LAN-WAN Network Notes Major impacts of DCE:
Chapter 1 LAN-WAN Network Notes Major impacts of DCE: No more monopolistic service provider  Need for standards No centralized IT controller Hosts doing specialized function Client/Server architecture formed the core of DCE network Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-9

10 Client/Server Model Notes
Chapter 1 Client/Server Model Request Response Notes Post office analogy; clerk the server, and the customer the client Client always initiates requests & waits Server always responds – waiting for requests Notice that control is handed over to the receiving entity  A client can’t initiate a process in the server Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-10

11 Client/Server Examples
Chapter 1 Client/Server Examples Notes Concurrent processing of requests by server minimizes delay Cooperative computing processes (Client, Mail, DNS) Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-11

12 TCP/IP Based Networks Notes TCP/IP is a suite of protocols
Chapter 1 TCP/IP Based Networks TCP/IP is a suite of protocols Internet is based on TCP/IP IP is Internet protocol at the network layer level TCP is connection-oriented transport protocol and ensures end-to-end connection UDP is connectionless transport protocol and provides datagram service Much of the network mgmt. messages are based on UDP/IP ICMP part of TCP/IP suite Notes Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-12

13 Some Protocols in TCP/IP Suite (Stallings2000)
Chapter 1 Some Protocols in TCP/IP Suite (Stallings2000) 1-13

14 Internet Configuration
Chapter 1 Internet Configuration Notes Walk through the scenario of from Joe to Sally How is the Internet managed?  If mail doesn’t reach Destination, then where is the failure? Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-14

15 Architecture, Protocols and Standards
Chapter 1 Architecture, Protocols and Standards Communication architecture Modeling of communication systems, comprising functional components of a network and operational interfaces between them Communication protocols Operational procedures intra- and inter-modules Communication standards Agreement between manufacturers on protocols of communication equipment on physical characteristics and operational procedures Notes Examples: (Students to call out) Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-15

16 Communication Architecture
Chapter 1 Communication Architecture Notes Inter-layer interface: user and service provider Peer-layer protocol interface Analogy of hearing-impaired student Role of intermediate systems Gateway: Router with protocol conversion as gateway to an autonomous network or subnet Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-16

17 OSI Reference Model Notes
Chapter 1 OSI Reference Model Notes Importance of the knowledge of layer structure in NM Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-17

18 OSI Layers and Services
Chapter 1 OSI Layers and Services Notes Importance of services offered by different layers and the protocol conversion at different layers in NM Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-18

19 PDU Communication Model
Chapter 1 PDU Communication Model Notes What is the relevance of PDU model in NM? Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-19

20 SNA, OSI, and Internet Notes Similarity between SNA and OSI
Chapter 1 SNA, OSI, and Internet Notes Similarity between SNA and OSI Simplicity of Internet; specifies only layers 3 and 4 Integrated application layers over Internet Commonality of layers 1 and 2 - IEEE standard Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-20

21 Application Protocols
Chapter 1 Application Protocols Notes Internet user OSI user Telnet Virtual Terminal File Transfer Protocol File Transfer Access & Mgmt Simple Mail Transfer Message-oriented Text Protocol Interchange Standard Simple Network Common Management Management Protocol Information Protocol Network Management: Principles and Practice © Mani Subramanian 2000 1-21
